Last Goodbye Room

Lyrics

Verse 1
Empty chair, cold plate
Your name still on my tongue
I reached for one more second
But the door had already swung
No goodbye in my hands
Just your shirt and your ring
And the silence in this house
That still remembers everything

Pre-Chorus
I carry your laugh
Like a light in my chest
Some nights it burns
Some nights it rests
And I keep asking why
Why you had to go
When I still had so much
I needed you to know

Chorus
I never got to say goodbye
(never got to say goodbye)
I keep you in my mind
(keep you in my mind)
The love still stays alive
(the love still stays alive)
When the hard days come
I break inside

Verse 2
Days get long, days get hard
One more bill, one more loss
I walk through the same rooms
Like I'm counting the cost
Your photo on the shelf
Still makes me stop and stare
I talk to the quiet
Like you might answer there

Pre-Chorus
I carry your laugh
Like a light in my chest
Some nights it burns
Some nights it rests
And I keep asking why
Why you had to go
When I still had so much
I needed you to know

Chorus
I never got to say goodbye
(never got to say goodbye)
I keep you in my mind
(keep you in my mind)
The love still stays alive
(the love still stays alive)
When the hard days come
I break inside

Bridge
If love could pull you back
I'd call you home tonight
I'd hold your hands so tight
And let you see me cry
But all I have is memory
And the shape you left behind
So I keep your name with me
Till the end of time

Final Chorus
I never got to say goodbye
(never got to say goodbye)
I keep you in my mind
(keep you in my mind)
The love still stays alive
(the love still stays alive)
When the hard days come
I break inside
I never got to say goodbye
(never got to say goodbye)
